Preservation of Environment
Preservation of the environment means the land and the natural resources should
not be consumed by humans
and should instead be
maintained in their pristine
form.
Earth's natural resources
include air, minerals, plants,
soil, water, and wildlife.
Conservation is the care and
protection of these resources
so that they can persist for
future generations. It includes
maintaining diversity of
species, genes, and ecosystems, as well as functions of the environment, such as
nutrient cycling.

Conserving Land and Life
Conservation is similar to preservation, but while both relate to the protection of
nature, they strive to accomplish this task in
different ways. Conservation seeks the
sustainable use of nature by humans, for
activities such as hunting, logging, or mining,
while preservation means protecting nature
from human use.
Continued human population growth has led
to unsustainable rates of consumption of our
natural resources, resulting in a loss of Earth's
biodiversity. The main factors driving
biodiversity loss include habitat destruction,
climate change, invasive species,
overexploitation, and pollution.
Declining biodiversity is closely intertwined
with species extinction. While extinction is a
normal process of nature, the rate at which it
is happening today is not. Scientists estimate
that current extinction rates are about a thousand times higher now than would be
expected based on the fossil record, and that we may be experiencing a mass extinction
event, which is when 75 percent or more species are lost at a time.
The extinction of the passenger pigeon is a famous example of an extinction caused by
human activity. It was once the most abundant land bird in North America, with a
population of approximately three to five billion when Europeans arrived. Despite its
vast numbers, this pigeon became extinct in the wild by the 1900s because of
overhunting. The last individual bird, named Martha, died in captivity in 1941 at the
Cincinnati Zoo.
Extinction is the complete disappearance of a species from Earth. Our planet is
dependent on an interconnected system. If we lose one species, how does that impact
the whole system? What if we lose hundreds? Help your students understand the gravity
of extinction with these classroom resources.
